People will say how much things have changed since 9/11, and this book was written before that. But I still learned a LOT about the world of Islamic women and, as with her other books, Geraldine Brooks does a great job researching her topics. I liked the way each chapter focused on a different aspect, e.g., education, employment, etc. I recommend this book if you are willing to be open-minded and learn about this vital segment of the Islamic culture.
